Critique my bulking diet please

[ch3mical]

Hey all. Just wanted to get your opinion on my diet here. Most notably, my first couple of meals, since I wake up early at 6:30 am and hit the gym around 7 am, meaning I don't get time for a proper meal before working out, so it is a "fasted" workout.

I've been working out for years, but have never been able to put on much muscle mass. My muscles grow VERY slowly, and I go hard at the gym 4 days a week. I'm hoping my diet will help speed this along, or else I'll have to look into "other" ways to get big.

Meal 1 (8:30 AM) (Post Workout)
* EAS Meal Replacement shake (50 g Protein, etc) with 1/3 cup of oatmeal and 1 tablespoon of Flax seed oil.

Meal 2 (10 AM)
* 1-1/4 cup of dry oats mixed with water
* 3 eggs
* Organic brown toast w/ butter

Meal 3 (1 PM)
* 2 cups of green beans, broccoli or any other desired vegetable
* 6-8 ounces of chicken or beef
* Handful of almonds / natural pumpkin seeds

Meal 4 (3:30 PM)
* EAS Meal Replacement shake (50 g Protein, etc) with 1/3 cup of oatmeal and 1 tablespoon of Flax seed oil.

Meal 5 (6 PM)
* 1 cup of brown rice, or medium sized baked potato, or 1 cup of oatmeal
* 2 cups of green beans, broccoli or any other desired vegetable
* 6-8 ounces of chicken or beef

Meal 6 (8 PM)
* 1 scoops of casein Protein powder (around 22 grams), mixed with water and 1/2 tablespoon of flax oil.
* Handful of almonds / natural pumpkin seeds

4 meals the night before and pack them in a cooler. i eat one when i get to work, then one every 3 hours. i eat my last meal at work at 3pm, get to the gym. I think this will be really helpful.

What does this at all have to do with me asking for a critique on my diet?
